Discusses the objectives, main sections, and rationale underlying the final report of the Subcommittee on Chemistry for the Nonscientist. (CC)

Describes college science teaching as overemphasizing jargon and end results and ignoring knowledge of methods, processes, successes, and limitations of science. Stresses students' understanding of science by self-paced synthesis of experience and historical, philosophical, and sociological presentation of science courses. (CC)

Reported are some findings from a study designed to discover the opinions of science educators about the procedures they used in the development of audio-tutorial (AT) lessons and/or minicourses. (PEB)

Described is a three-level self paced high school chemistry course developed for Queensland, Australia schools. The design involves a modification of the Keller Method. A sample unit test is included. (SL)
